Power button doesn't give events (Asus TUSL2-C)

Power button doesn't give events (Asus TUSL2-C)

[Jurgen Kramer]

Hi,

I am running the recent versions of ACPI on all my Linux systems and
all but one behave. On my primary desktop, running ACPI version
20021212, pressing the power button doesn't result in an proper
power/button event. Nothing happens at all. It does work under W*XP.

What can be the problem here? I you need more info I am happy to supply.

According to dmesg output my system, a Asus TUSL2-C, does pass the
blacklist test.

Cheers,

Jurgen

Does the output from /proc/interrupts list ACPI anywhere?

Does the interrupt count increase by 1 every time you press a power
button?

What does your dmesg say about discovered buttons?

The interrupt count from irq 9 doesn't change when a press the power
button. It doesn't seem the change ever. On my other working systems
(which are non APIC btw) the interrupt count for the ACPI irq changes
regularly.

[root@paragon root]# dmesg |grep Button
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Jurgen
